MSA has been working closely with the SAMC over the course of the last year, and it’s important to share our renewed commitment to collaborating with the SAMC in the upliftment of the Mohair Sector of South Africa for the Cluster’s Years 3 to 5 (Phase 2: April 2019 – March 2022).

Mohair South Africa is proud to be working with Textile Exchange in developing an international mohair standard. Whilst the industry has been governed by its own Sustainable Guidelines since 2009, the importance of an international standard made this evolution inevitable.

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Lindsay Humphreys to the position of General Manager of Mohair South Africa. We look forward to seeing great things from Lindsay and are excited by the new avenues of possibility.

In addition to our continuously-evolving guidelines laid down to ensure a thriving and profitable South African mohair industry, we work closely with the Mohair Empowerment Trust to assist emerging farmers in developing successful and sustainable Angora goat farming initiatives.
